FOOD GLORIOUS FOOD

FOOD GLORIOUS FOOD

“Let food be your medicine, and medicine be your food!”

Most all of our medical problems is because we do not eat the right food. Both of my grandparents had produce stores. Our families are part of a long line of produce growers, and sellers of fresh fruits, and vegetables.

The food we eat needs to be in balance. Too much acid, or base producing food is not good for you. Only about 1% of the population is eating enough alkaline (base) producing food. Here is a list of types of food.

Very Acidic Foods and Supplements Include
      Eggs
      Liver and other organ meats
      Gravy
      Broth made from bones or other animal parts
      Wine
      Yogurt with active cultures
      Buttermilk, including buttermilk pancakes and biscuits
      Sour cream
      Most fermented foods and aged cheeses
      Some B vitamin supplements or foods supplemented with B vitamins make your stomach more acid
      Hydrochloric acid supplements
      Digestive enzymes

Acidic Foods
      Corn
      Meat
      Beans
      Fish
      Fowl
      Most grains
      Coffee
      Plums
      Prunes
      Cranberries
      Distilled water

Very Alkaline Foods Include     
      Chocolate
      Figs
      Mineral water
      Orange juice
      Potatoes
      Spinach      
      Bananas
      Watermelon
      Dandelion Greens

Alkaline Foods

  • Most fruits, except as noted above
  • Most vegetables, except as noted above

Neutral Foods
The Mayo Clinic Diet Manual, Seventh Edition categorizes the following foods as neutral foods
      Butter
      Margarine
      Cooking fats
      Oils
      Plain candies
      Sugar
      Syrup
      Honey
      Arrowroot
      Corn
      Tapioca
      Coffee
      Tea

See the full article, and study the acid/base balance on the Internet.

The Problem with Prescription Acid Blockers

Prescription acid blockers operate on the assumption that an over production of acid is the cause of your acid reflux. Based on this idea, they work by blocking or dramatically slowing down the stomach’s acid production, thereby minimizing the chance that acid can enter and harm your esophagus. To that end, they do their job- but at a dangerous cost to your health.

Stomach acid plays an important role in both digestion and your overall health and by blocking its production you are essentially starving the body of life sustaining nutrients. Without adequate amounts of stomach acid, vital amino acids, vitamins and minerals are unable to break down properly and fail to make it into your bloodstream. Insufficient amounts of stomach acid severely impact the production of life-sustaining hormones and create an environment ripe for harmful bacteria to thrive. Without enough stomach acid to keep the bacteria at bay, the toxic bacterial byproducts can spread throughout the body. Overtime, the results of low stomach acid can be devastating.

Research has shown that chronic low stomach acid can lead to a wide range of serious diseases, including cardiovascular disease, type 1 diabetes, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, allergies, skin disorders, and depression.

THE BODY IS NOT THE MIND

Human beings began to think long before they began to understand one another or to reflect upon their thoughts. Reasoning was the progression of their strength that enfolded as his virtue and his connection with nature and the environment improved.

Man began to learn that working in groups was good for his welfare and his well being. The better he communicated with others the better his life became.

CANCER TREATMENT WITH FOOD WORKS VERY WELL
Now Playing: Pomegranate, Noni and Goji

CancerEnd fights your cancer with extracts of Pomegranate, Noni and Goji juices which work in a way different than other anti-cancer medicines by supplying immune boosting polysaccharides.

The Goji berries in CancerEnd are the richest source of cartenoids of all known foods. They contain 500 times more vitamin C, by weight, than oranges.

They also contain polysaccharides which fortify the immune system. Goji berries have been traditionally regarded as a longevity and strength building food of the highest order.

In studies with elderly people where the berry was given once a day for 3 weeks, 67% of the patient’s T cell transformation functions tripled and the activity of the patients white cell interleukin-2 doubled.

A Six Blend Organic Noni, Acai, Pomegranate, Goji, Mangosteen & Camu-Camu fruit juice is a pure and natural fruit juice also works well.

Studies suggest that this unique complex by Life Time, creates a synergistic response (works best when blended together) at the cellular level within the body.

This synergistic antioxidant complex is more active when blended together than if each fruit juice were consumed alone.

These prized berries have traditionally been used for thousands of years and studies suggest they may help increase energy, stamina, vitality, and promote a healthy immune system.

THE MEANING OF LIFE
Now Playing: Rebirth is not a one time thing...
I seek the meaning of life. I seek to live that life. This is my theory of everything. It includes every aspect of my being and essence. It includes my body, mind, soul, spirit, and all the countless words that help describe the who, what, where, when, why, and how of me.

Even if I tell you the story of my life, and you come to a better understanding of who I am, you would fall short of why I am. Even if I use all the words of the languages of the world, I could not fully describe a lifetime of actions, thoughts, words, deeds, omissions, hopes, dreams, experiences, and the parallel essences of me; because you too would have to live my life to understand it, and that may not even be fully possible for me to do.

"The unexamined life is not worth living." Yet it is not wise to prefer not living or death, before I have fully experienced all the good things of life that life offers.

I begin with my outline of the universe that you can know, and better understand by studying what all the best authorities say about it. I include what all the theologies, philosophies, and sociologies tell us, with what all that the cultures, customs, political, economic, and educational systems have to say about the universe too.

First I begin with religion, because it leads me to God who created everything, and his design is what I am telling. Although no one can fully know the mind of God, God wants us to know everything about him. He loves us so much that besides knowing all about him, he wants us to be one with him.

It depends how well I am being brought up that I will become who I am to be. It takes the universe to raise a person. The best level to be is where I am fully aware of what I am doing, and what God wants me to do.

I act freely to make the world a better place, and I work with God to create a perfect universe. I know the world is not perfect, because there would be no use of creation, if it was perfect. God needs us to help him finish creation. Since God is eternal, what he made is also perfect. His being is his essence. This means that which he is, is who he is.

Second I explain very simply how my life encompasses everything. I attempt to live the true way of life. I act deliberately with little deep reasoning, because I have come to embody the example of Christ. Knowing right from wrong is the main lesson of life, moreover, doing right over following the easy path that is often the road less traveled is the correct thing to do.

Religion teaches me what I need to fulfill my life. It teaches me how to get to heaven. It tells me how Jesus saved me, and how he is my personal savior. When I pray I talk to God. I not only talk to Jesus; but also to the Father, and the Holy Spirit. Plans and schemes are not needed when you walk with Jesus.

The biggest obstacle to happiness is sin. Life is not a temptation; neither is the opposite sex. Learning how the body works is not wrong. God helps us overcome every temptation. He offers salvation to everyone, no matter what they have done; if they are truly sorry for their sins.
Life has the lesson of knowing how to live with temptation and how to avid it. Do not allow temptation to become too great, before you turn away from it. Avoid the first signs of it. Learn how to be happy by being good to everyone. Repent of all of your sins, and ask forgiveness from all that you have offended. Pay what you owe others, and return what you have of theirs. Make a good and complete confession. Now is the time, do not wait before it is too late.

Everything works for perfection. Jesus did not come to earth for us to fail. Every thing we do is a lesson. We can learn from it no matter if it goes badly or if it goes well. We learn from our parents, friends, acquaintances, co-workers, teammates, classmates, and others. We learn from books, teachers, and the media how to be good. We learn in every waking state and in our dreams. God reveals the truth to us in many ways to fulfill our destiny.

I dream of being an angel. I fly all around the neighborhood helping everyone who needs help. I never get lost, because my guardian angel is by my side, and he has immediate contact with all the other angels and saints to help me. I need very little sleep, because my sleep is very restful. No matter how much the world needs help; we only do what we can, as the Holy Spirit guides us.

What we dream follows through the day. We help our neighbor, when he needs it. We ask him if he needs our help and we let him know that we are willing to help him. Jesus showed us all the ways we can help others, and in this way we all can make the world a better place to enjoy, like our Lord created it. Be nice to all you meet. Smile, and say hello to them every time you see them. Make sure you know what Jesus taught, and what the church teaches. Go to church and do all you can to make a better place for everyone.

Life is the shared process of participating in it. The only way we can affect change, is by being part of everything we can do for good. What one person does, affects the whole universe. "The truth is simple, if you understand it." Love God with your whole heart, all your body, mind, and all your strength. Love your neighbor, as you love yourself. Greater works than these, you will see, because the time is drawing near when he will come again.

Linux Log: The High Quality OS

Linux Log is now a regular column in Troubleshooting Professional Magazine, authored by Steve Litt. Each month we'll explore a facet of Linux as it relates to that month's theme.

Car enthusiasts demand quality. Their cars are well designed and well maintained. Some enthusiasts drive stripped down muscle machines, others have scores of accessories and amenities, but all are built on top of robust, well functioning vehicles. There's a computer operating system like that. It's called Linux.

All Linux installations have power and reliability. On almost any given CPU/memory/disk space setup, Linux outperforms Windows. Linux is rock solid. It's so solid that you almost never need to reboot it. Even when changing your configuration. That's another Linux advantage over Windows.

Like most young parents, my folks had little money when I was a little kid, so our car was an old beater 48 Ford handed down from my grandparents. I still remember it getting vapor lock and stalling several times a day. Every couple miles, the car would stall and my Dad would run out, pop the hood, and lay wet rags on the intake manifold. My parents carried a bucket of water in the car, because this ritual would repeat itself hourly on hot days. If you are a Windows "power user", I think you know how my parents felt. Yes, rebooting is easier than laying wet rags in traffic, but it's a similar annoyance.

Linux is more like today's Buicks, or, if you prefer, yesteryear's slant 6 and 318 Dodge Darts. It just runs. Always. Every time. Forever.

Linux comes with a wide variety of options. You can install a "stripped down" command-line only Linux. No graphical user interface, no accessories and amenities, just a command line driven OS that can serve web pages, files, and DNS resolution, as well as run some astonishingly heavy processes, on a piece of hardware with surprisingly little in the way of CPU, memory or disk space. Personally, I use Red Hat Linux for such stripped down uses, but any Linux distribution can be used this way.
 
You can also get the luxury package. A complete graphical interface very much like Windows (but without the hourly vapor lock -- scuse me, blue screens of death). GUI assisted email, web browsing, and internet connection. Netscape Navigator and Netscape Composer (for creating web pages) are standard options of such systems. Windows comes with a rudimentary word processor, Wordpad. Likewise, most Linux distributions come with rudimentary word processors. And of course, for about $70.00, you can get WordPerfect for Linux, which compares very favorably to Microsoft Word.

My favorite luxury Linux is Caldera OpenLinux, which is sort of the "Buick Lasabre" of Linuxes. If you want the "Lincoln Towncar" of Linuxes, get Corel Linux. The look and feel is identical to Windows. The only Windows features missing are the hourly crashes and the blue screen of death. The driver (scuse me, user) has everything at his or her fingertips. If you buy the $89.00 package, you get an official copy of Wordperfect to go with it. And now even Red Hat includes many of these same luxury features. And you get the best of both worlds. Because you can press Ctrl-Alt-Function key and get a stripped down command line interface on your luxury Linux, while at the same time running GUI software on the GUI screen.
 
Linux distributions vary widely in price, as long as you define "widely" between 0 and $100.00. If you forego the customer support and warrantee, most of these Linuxes can be delivered to your door for $5.00 plus shipping -- often $2.00 plus shipping. A further advantage of the $5.00 CD deals is that they should contain only redistributable software, meaning it should be perfectly legal to install that same CD on your machine and the machines 100 of your closest friends. Or 1000 -- copying redistributable- only CD's is perfectly legal. No software police will show up at your door. I think a good strategy is to make your first Linux full priced (still much less than Windows) so you get some tech support. Once you're familiar with Linux, go with the $5.00 CD's.
 
Linux isn't as forgiving of oddball hardware as Windows. Here's why. Because Microsoft has had an illegal monopoly for so long (this is Judge Jackson's opinion, the URL of which is in the URL's section of this magazine), hardware vendors were forced to make sure their equipment worked with Windows. Only in the last year have they had any incentive to make their hardware work with Linux. As a result, you need to take a little more care selecting your hardware. You should look at the Linux hardware compatibility at... I have some additional suggestions:

If you want an easy life in Linux audio, choose only a genuine Soundblaster or an Ensoniq, which were made by the same company, Creative Labs. Other sound cards often require some fairly heavy Linux expertise to set up.

Use an external modem. External modems have a very thin interface to the computer (a serial cable). This limits the problems you have with things like interrupts, plug and pray, and the like.

Use a monitor with known horizontal and vertical refresh rates. With monitors not in your Linux installation program's database, you get a much cleaner and more flicker free display if you explicitly specify these parameters.

The Wishing Well
My family bought a house when I was 7. The days of money problems and vapor lock were over. My parents liked the neighborhood, the school system, and the house. I liked the wishing well.

Of course it wasn't a real wishing well. It was just a three foot space between the garage and the fence. Densely overgrown with weeds, it inspired fear and curiosity. I went in, and kept going in. Because every time I went in, I came out holding something cool. A marble, a ball, whatever I wanted. Once I wished for a scooter, and sure enough there it was, 10 feet back in a heretofore unexplored section of the wishing well.

Of course any adult knows what happened. The last several owners had children, each of whom left things behind. I was a teenager when we moved out of that house. Surely the child of the new owner found the cool toys I abandoned in that overgrown space. Only a kid could think of it as a wishing well. A magical source of found dreams. It was the magic of childhood, all too brief -- never recaptured. Until I found Linux.

I wished for a web server and found one on my Red Hat Linux CD. Soon I found an email server and DNS server, and complete networking software. I networked my office.

The more I worked with Linux, the uglier Windows seemed. I wished for a Windows replacement. What should I find on the Red Hat, Caldera and Corel distibutions (as well as many others), but something called KDE, a graphical environment that mimics Windows so closely that you can put a Windows user on a KDE equipped Linux box and he'll know what to do. There's another graphical environment called Gnome, with a different set of benefits. If you install both the KDE and Gnome libraries, you can run programs designed for either. I felt like a kid again, crawling through the weeds and pulling out a scooter. But the fun had just begun...

I didn't like the way they had changed a particular feature of the Samba file server software. I wished there was a way to make it behave like the old version. Because Linux and other Opens Source software (including Samba) come with source code, I was able to find the location of the changed feature, and change it back. It was a simple modification of two lines of source code. I recompiled and copied the newly made files, and boom, it worked the old way. I changed the actual software to suit my liking. Your wish has been granted.

Once you install Linux, you'll see the wishing well. It won't look like an overgrown space between the garage and fence. Instead, it will be the Internet. Wish for fax software, and download HylaFax free of charge (yes, legally!). Wish for a word processor? Download free AbiWord, StarOffice, or go to the store and buy Wordperfect for Linux. Free software called word2x converts Word docs to various other formats, which can be helpful. Want a graphics program with the power of Photoshop? It's called Gimp, and comes on most Linux distribution CD's. Want a simple vector graphics program? How about tgif? It has a zero cost license. Or maybe you'd prefer Canvas, a full-featured proprietary ($375 full license) vector graphics program.
 
Where do you find out about available software available for Linux? The best place is the Freshmeat website at http://www.freshmeat.net. They have a search feature enabling you to pretty much find any Linux compatible software. There's also the Linux section of Tucows, whose URL is in the URL's section of this issue of Troubleshooting Professional Magazine.

How would you like an audio player than manages playlists and plays all different formats? I won't lie to you -- it will take a little research and programming, but you can do it free with Linux. Your windows buddies will ask you why you took all that trouble. You can no more explain it to them than you can explain your weekly maintenance of your 440 68 Charger to your neighbor with a Toyota. Your Charger leaves the Toyota in the dust, and your Linux audio player leaves the Windows music programs in the dust. And if it doesn't, you can soup it up until it does.

Linux isn't for everyone. More than ever before, trade magazines hype the computer as an "appliance". The person wanting an appliance buys a Windows computer. Linux computers aren't appliances. Neither are 68 Chargers.

Ten Herbs To Spice Up Your Meals
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: You are what you eat; so eat what you want to be!

The real secret is almost always herbs and spices, which most beginning cooks seem to forget about, underestimate, or are intimidated by them.

The truth is that adding a few dashes of an appropriate seasoning to a dish can really make it flavorful - and make you forget about takeout. Here are ten utilitarian herbs and spices you should have in your cupboard for general use; once you’re familiar with these, you can try expanding your repertoire (knowing my readers, they’ll likely throw up several suggestions in the comments). 

The dried herb and spice section at your store is the best place to start: most grocery stores sell small containers of each of these for less than a dollar. I’d recommend trying them one at a time in appropriate dishes before mixing them very much, because awkward herb and spice mixes can be atrocious, even if they’re quite good on their own.

Bay Leaves Get some of these if you grill or prepare stews. Almost every grilled meat is wonderfully accented with some crushed bay leaves pressed into the meat before grilling, and they’re also great in soups and stews.

Chives You can add these to almost any vegetable dish (especially steamed vegetables) to pop a good deal of extra flavors. Unsurprisingly, they’re also great on potatoes, along with sour cream, and can also mix well with eggs.

Cumin This is an essential ingredient for making any Mexican dish pop, plus it’s good as a general spice for meats and cheeses.

Marjoram A healthy dose of marjoram is one of my most vital secret ingredients in my spaghetti sauce. It also adds “Italian” flavor to pretty much any meat or vegetable.

Oregano Oregano goes well with any dish that uses a substantial amount of tomato in it, particularly anything Italian. It’s another key ingredient of a great homemade spaghetti sauce, for example.

Pepper (coarsely ground black, preferably) This stuff is fantastic on almost everything I’ve ever tried, from soups to meats to sauces. Don’t skimp on this, though - get some coarsely ground black pepper to start with and you’ll eventually find yourself wanting your own pepper grinder and making your own pepper mixes. Or maybe I’m just a crazy foodie.

Rosemary This is the stuff dreams are made of for both chicken and potatoes. That is all.

Sage This goes good on any poultry and any type of pork, and is also a great ingredient for hearty stuffings. It creates a very rustic and hearty “soul food” flavor.

Tarragon If you ever eat scrambled or fried eggs, buy a small container of tarragon to add to the mix. It also goes good on salads, on chicken, and on seafood.

Thyme It basically goes with just about everything: meats, vegetables, and especially in any soups you might prepare.

New Oral Chelation with PCA-Rx
Now Playing: Call It CLA-THRA-TION

What is Chelation & Clathration?

Chelation (pronounced key-LAY-shun) is a term derived from the Greek chele, meaning "claw." A chelation agent is a chemical agent that, like a claw, grabs and chemically bonds with metals or other minerals and toxins. Simply put, chelation is the process in which chemicals bind with minerals. While chelation is a naturally occurring biological process (hemoglobin binds with iron to provide oxygen to tissues), synthesized chelation agents were first developed during World War II as a way to clear toxic metals from the body. Chemists discovered they could create a heterocycling ring of molecules which surround or "sequester" mineral molecules and carry them from the body through normal elimination.

This process of chelation actually removes unwanted metals from the bloodstream. In fact, chelation therapy is the only way to treat lead poisoning. But lead is not the only metal cleansed from the body through chelation. A chelation agent will also bind with most metals, mineral deposits, calcium-based plaques and other chemical toxins. Because of its positive impact on the bloodstream, chelation therapy has proven to benefit a number of medical conditions, including atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis.

At Awaken Nutrition, we consider oral chelation therapy a vital step toward cleansing the body of contaminants. However, we believe there must be a more effective product to complete the toxin-removal task efficiently. We also believe that oral chelating will soon become a primary frontline treatment for severely and chronically ill patients. Our research and development has resulted in the creation of PCA-Rx oral chelation, a breakthrough peptide clathration formula and our solution to physiological toxicity.

Laboratory studies have shown it to effectively clear heavy metals, toxins, plaque, pesticides, chemicals, and residuals from prior bacterial and viral infections. It also seems to target the liver for detoxification and to lower both elevated enzyme counts and mercury levels in children with autism.

What is Chelation? Chelation is a well-known method of heavy metal and toxin removal in which a special chemical compound called a chelate - such as dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), dimercaptopropane sulfonate (DMPS), or ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) - is given, usually intravenously. The chelate finds and forms a single attachment to the toxin with one reversible ionic bond. With that bond intact, the toxin is grabbed onto, pulled off the cell and carried from the body. However, the toxin is not neutralized during this process and is potentially able to attach to other cells on its way out.

Conventional chelation also has a harder time clearing heavy metals from cells (due to having only one method of bonding to the toxin) and some chelating substances even remove needed minerals from the body with the toxins, resulting in some adverse side effects. What is Clathration? Clathration is a unique form of chelation therapy in which the clathrating substance - such as PCA-Rx - is given orally.

This clathrate then finds and encloses the toxin in a three-dimensional cage-like inclusion complex (also known as a lattice structure or matrix) using three different types of irreversible bonds. These bonds attach to and completely envelop the toxin - essentially neutralizing it - to keep it from coming into contact with any other bodily tissues as it is carried from the body.

In this way, the unnatural contaminant has no way of re-attaching to and damaging the body as it is flushed out. This method is especially effective against heavy metals. Herein lies the power of PCA-Rx. For more on how PCA-Rx and clathration work in the toxin removal process, see Learn More About PCA-Rx.

Sense Currents

There are sense currents. One current for each and a holistic current that brings all the perceptions of body, mind, soul, and spirit together with the universe.

 The visual current is a point of light that works with the mind and the questions it asks.

The sense of touch can read colors, and below the surface of objects.

The sound current is a high pitch sound that everyone can train to hear and work with other sounds and higher electro magnetic frequencies.

The sense of smell can be trained to distinguish many combinations of the basic odors and it can be trained to become much stronger.

The sense of taste can also be trained to distinguish many combinations of the basic tastes and it too can become much better at telling what makes up a basic substance.

Humans can process sensual input and project sensual output. The senses work together to form a process or projection.
